It generally seams to be the exact opposite to me. I have a young dog that will run some trash with other dogs, but when I hunt him by himself he does no wrong.

Definitely worse with company...like an otherwise good kid that always gets into trouble with other bad company. If one does it and seems to be having fun and getting away with it the other just has to join in. I also believe that a dog by itself that crosses the track of junk doesn't have as much to consider as the one that hears the other dog either start running it or think he is getting ready to run it, so he goes.

If you want to cause bad habits and create problems put a young hound with company I personally will never hunt a young hound starting one out with anything never ever until I usually go and take it to it's first hunt before it ever sees another dog in the woods. That's just me though.

not trying to insult you or ur dog but could it be the dog u are talking about looks better with other dogs because he isn't a very good track dog himself. i have seen and owned a few like that.

I'd say there's a possibility that your dog is just trashy when it's up to him to get the job done and when he's with other dogs, he's just running with them and it seems as though he's fine but really is just tagging along. If you like him you need to single him out by himself and maybe try shocking him on whatever he's trashing on. If shocking him don't work, I'd find me another dog. What will happen is by running a trashy dog with other dogs, you may cause other dogs to start running trash too. What a dog is by himself is the kind of dog you have. If a dog can't tree coon consistently by himself, I assure you he's not leading the pack when with other dogs. Jmo.

Well that's the exact opposite of my experience. Do you think maybe your dog needs help to tree the coon and is trailing a lot more without help, making it look like trash? Now that I have seen several times.

When you say the dog is trashy by himself, what do you mean? Deer? Or possum? Armadillo? Also how old is the dog?

If she was me tooing or treeing with other dogs I would agree. But she splits more often than not, with a coon. Once in a blue moon will she be with another dog

Only one way to find out drop her on Deer, with the shock collar see what she does. Repeat the next couple nights if she does run the off game. Through the repetition the dog should learn. I like to put the e collar on earlier that day when trash breaking.
